Epigenetic age acceleration and violence exposure. (A) Forest plots show differences in epigenetic age acceleration among those exposed to violence relative to controls, comparing the analyses of F2ā+āF3 (mothers and children) and F3 (children). (B) Boxplots of the distribution of epigenetic age acceleration (residual variation independent of chronological age) by violence exposure category in F3/children. The middle line indicates the median, the box covers the interquartile range, and dots indicate observed Age Acceleration values.
